LABRYS – “Bitch in a Band”

Broncho’s Penny Pitchlynn leads LABRYS, an alt-rock outfit with great melodic instinct. The band’s debut EP is instantly appealing. On today’s good song, Penny sings “This only works cuz I go back to the band.” The song is romantic in its description of a lack of romance in the banding life. It’s a life on the road song, another piece of the larger mythology of the touring musician. So, curiously, that means I’ll file it with “I Wanna Be Sedated” and “Turn the Page.”
